Penelope's Story...

Penelope's Story...

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Penelope is a 6-7 year old Buff and White Cocker Spaniel with a docked tail. Her owners were cited for not having a dog license. The family had hit hard times and the fees were just too much, so they relinquished her to the animal shelter.

Penelope has been a joy to foster. She is house trained. Knows how to use a doggy door and has mastered going up and down the stairs in her foster home, despite not being able to see. She loves walks on the leash and riding in the car. She is a very kind and confident dog.

She is currently is living with other Cocker Spaniels and cats. She does fine, but enjoys being the pack leader.

Penelope is crate trained and sleeps in her crate next to her foster mom's bed at night. Her coat is currently cut short, but it will continue to grow and will need regular grooming appointments to keep her tidy.

We have not had her around children, but feel that dog experienced kids of at least 10 years old should be fine.

About Our Rescue Group...

We have been helping homeless animals since 1997. We are contacted by animal shelters for help in placing dogs that have been missed by the public for a variety of reasons. Other rescue partners that we have close contacts with, also contact us for assistance in helping dogs that they may not have room for. Last, but certainly not least, some folks just get in a bind and simply can not keep their dog any longer, for any number of reasons. If we feel we can help, we will.

We have wonderful volunteers and always welcome new additions to our rescue family.

If you live in the S CA area, private appointments are made to meet the dog after an application is received and approved.

Our Adoption Process...

Once you find a pet that you are potentially interested in, please contact us for an application. Once received, we will be in contact with you to answer any questions that pertain to the animal that you have applied for. We then will make arrangements for you to meet the dog, whether it be at the Foster Home or at our scheduled adoption event. You will sign a contract at the time of adoption. Each dog that is adopted, will go home with their shot records, spay/neuter certificate, microchip information as well as any other medical information that we may have on file for that particular dog. Our adoption fee is $400.00.
